Problems with syncExec on Windows Mobile 2005https://www.eclipse.org/forums/index.php/mv/msg/147579/464527/#msg_464527
2005. We are running into serious problems with the sync mechanisms on the
newest Windows Mobile OS.

I tried to find out by myself what's wrong - the result is that the method
"runAsyncMessages" of the Synchronizer class is -except once initially-
never called again. The "readAndDispatch" method of the Display class
never receives the WM_NULL message => at the end the lock.wait() of the
syncExec never gets the notifyAll() of the runAsyncMessages method ...

I also compiled the C sources under 2003 and 2005 - but, frankly, this
code is (even for a C++ veteran like me) a bit to complicated to find the
error shortly.

Any idea where the error could be - or any time line when 2005 will be
supported? We built serious applications on the SWT/WinCE platform, so any
help the highly appreaciated (...)
